One day, after three years of painting large politically themed paintings, I realized my heart had grown heavy. Burdened by the suffering in the world, I had carried my brush as a sword.
I felt by bearing witness and acknowledging upheaval, chaos, and war in a new context, these paintings might magically change something in us.
But one day, after a particularly difficult painting was complete, I threw up my and hands and said to the ghosts around me. “Today I am painting animals!”
